I have a 2000 MY, and I could swear that when I stopped the top part of the way down, closed the latch, then tried to finish putting the top down, it wouldn't go any further. I was as if there's a switch in the latch mechanism itself that stopped the top operation when the latch is closed, whether or not it engages the mating part at the top of the windshield.

I was a while ago that I tried this, so I could be mistaken (early onset of CRS disease). I'll have to give it a try when I get home tonight.
